The transition of arthropods, other invertebrates and microorganisms to the nest-burrow habitats was accompanied (if presented in a historical aspect) by an intensive speciation resulting in a rise of a peculiar life form, nidicoles. Now nidicoles are reported in such large taxons as Protophyta, Mycophyta, Protozoa, Nematoda and Arthropoda. The main part of nidicoles is represented by arthropods, members of the orders Acariformes, Parasitiformes, Blattoidea, Saltatoria, Mallophaga, Anoplura, Heteroptera, Coleoptera, Diptera and Siphonaptera.
节肢动物、其他无脊椎动物和微生物向巢穴栖息地的转变（从历史角度来看）伴随着强烈的物种形成过程，导致了一种特殊生命形式——巢居生物的出现。如今，在原生植物、真菌、原生动物、线虫和节肢动物等大型分类群中都有巢居生物的报道。巢居生物的主要部分由节肢动物代表，包括蜱螨亚纲、寄螨目、蜚蠊目、直翅目、食毛目、虱目、半翅目、鞘翅目、双翅目和蚤目的成员。
